Joey's 100th Challenge

Congratulations Joey. 100 challenges thought up and posted on her blog to focus our tangling minds. Well, as far as I am concerned long may it continue, I have really enjoyed these challenges, although I only started tangling last June, so unfortunately I haven't been here from the beginning.

To celebrate the zentenniary Joey has given us a 100 string and asked us to include bijou. I have always wanted to draw Bijou and didn't realise there was a video showing just that, so thank you Joey for the link.

I have done a trio of tiles - I thought 100 tiles would not only be a bit excessive, but also beyond me! For my first tile (which actually is my least favourite of the three) I stuck with the string Joey gave us and also included a bijou tile in the middle of it, so Bijou can't say he was left out. I used Adele Bruno's 100, Margeret Bremner's Partay!, Explosion, AHH and tried turning Pokeroot into balloons which didn't quite come off.

Next I made the 100 string a bit wavy, hanging Joey on a wavy 100 ribbon, using the O in Joey for the first 0 and AHH below for the second 0. Bijou is wandering across the top of the E, I hope he doesn't mind heights.

Lastly I strayed right away from the string to say thanks to Joey using the Zentangle Original pattern Vermal. Bijou even managed to insert himself into this tile disguised as a full stop :-D
